Robocop 9.0 and higher....

[Motivations]

I do not know if it is possible to make this thread Optimus moderated.....

But I do need a thread which summarizes the main issues left/wanted/implemented/notdone into one page.....with updates from Optimus....I think it would help lots of people out.....

The Original thread is now over 100 pages...which means it takes ages before you find a sollution...or help!!

Now the Robocop script has changed so major...creating a new thread for it, and also maybe summarize some items here doesn't seem all that bad...

And I do think it will help out users....and make them post less questions....look at it as a first creation of a help file....

Ik hoop dat je het positieve inziet van deze forum thread Optimus...!

groeten van een liefhebber en gelukkige gebruiker van jouw script.... ;-)

well, i tried to self register on a robocop 9 hub and i found a major problem ...

[11:03] *** Wrong password use the followingen characters. abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ0123456789
[11:05] This hub is Powered by RoboCop? v9.0a - Created by Optimus?

I have been preaching the following security to all operators in my network.

Late's Secure Password Policies:
1. longer than 8 characters
2. not your user nick
3. contain 2 words
4. contain upper case letters
5. contain lower case letters
6. contain numbers
7. contain special characters (@#!)
8. NEVER USE THE SAME PASSWORD IN MORE THAN ONE PLACE!!!

I'm just wondering why the authors of this script go against these policies and removed the ability to use special chars in passwords?

7. contain special characters (@#!)

No problem i will make that support.

It is made this way because of security reasons. But those special characters can be added no prob.

well, could it be that PtokaX register file might get currupt with using special Chars ..

indeed it does get currupt on specific chars.. thats why opti and others took these precautions against special chars..

until next time :)

I dont know the lang ... but I surely know that u tried to edit the Robocop.lua file ...

I suggest a fresh install and never try to edit that file again ...

thats because it is compiled ... you may only edit uncompiled lua scripts ...
